Are Orthotics A Must for All Runners?

Not all runners have foot pain, NOT all runners require orthotics. An orthotic is a custom insole used to correct biomechanical problems with the foot and ankle. The purpose of an orthotic is to offer a stable base of support for the lower extremity while also increasing efficiency.

Many of the causes of heel pain in runners are related to concerns with unstable mechanics. Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, Achilles tendinitis, posterior tibial tendinitis, and iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome are all examples of heel pain. To prevent the problem from recurring, each of these difficulties will require a custom orthotic to balance the mechanics of the lower extremity.

We do a full lower extremity biomechanical examination, including a digital gait study, when evaluating a Houston runner for custom orthotics. We can create an orthotic that is tailored to your needs by learning about your gait.

By increasing the effectiveness of your lower extremities, a properly designed foot orthotic will allow you to boost your speed and distance. Contact our Houston podiatry office to see if an orthotic is suitable for you.
